PREFACE.
The present volume contains the first portion of a work, based
upon the Conalia Mapm Britawm^ el Hiiermi^ of Wilkios, and aiming
at a reproduction of that great work, in accordance witli the present
state of our knowledge and materials. The extent however of the
undertaking is at present limited to the period antecedent to the
Reformation. And as the book will thus cover less ground than
that of Wilkins, so it has seemed expedient to depart in it also from
the arrangement adopted by him, as well as of course (and very con-
siderably) from the contents themselves of his book. Acknowledging
fiilly our obligations to him, as having alone rendered a work like
the present possible at all, we have not felt bound to retain
everything which be admitted, any more than we have tied ourselves
to the limits of the materials which were accessible to him. We
have acted upon our own judgment, and to an extent that renders
our work almost a new work, both in omitting and in adding;
save that in the former, we design to omit nothing, except upon
the grounds of proved spuriousness, or as substituting a better and
earlier authority for a later, or as displacing documents wroi^ly
attributed to our own Church but really translations of e.g.
Prankish or other foreign documents.
In point of arrangement, it has seemed more convenient to
keep tcgether the documents relating to each period and division
of the several national or local branches of the Churches of these
islands, placing them chronologically under each of those several
periods and d^'^isions. We shall thus have the older British, the
Welsh, the Comish, the Scottish (in the modem sense of the term),
the Irish, the Anglo-Saxon documents, besides those of minor or of
oyGooi^lc
viii PREFACE.
later divisioDS, grouped t(^ther so as tx> illustrate one another :
and this, at the cost of a very trifling amount of rather cross-
reference than repetition. Wilkins's single and purely dironolo-
gical arrangement results in the scattering of the few Welsh, Scot-
tish, or Irish doaiments within his reach, here and there, among
contemporary Anglo-Saxon or Norman documents, otherwise for
the most part wholly unconnected with them.
In respect to contents the present work varies even far more
widely from its predecessor and prototype. For the year 1737,
the Condlia of Wilkins was 2 monument of gigantic labour and
learning and worthily claimed both to rival and to supplant
the worli^ for its date equally wonderful, of Wilkins's own
forerunner Spelman. But it is no imputation either upon that
inde&tigable scholar's industry, or upon his critical skill, to say,
that for our present needs, and with our present materials, and
according to the sounder canons of present historical and philo-
lexical knowledge, his work is inadequate, exceedingly defective
and incomplete, and (especially in its earlier portions) uncritical:
to say nothing of the not few blemishes which disi^ure it, of
incorrect readings and inaccurate An^o-Saxon translations. The
complete revolution effected in Anglo-Saxon scholarship by the
labours of such men as Rask, Grimm, Boswortb, Kemble, Thorpe
etc., and the labours of the last-named upon the special class of
Anglo-Saxon documents with which we are concerned, supply ample
materials for the remedy of the last-named defect. And the aid
in this department kindly promised to us by the Rev. John Baron,
MJV., of Queen's CoU^e, Oxford, the careful and learned editor cS
Johnson's Emg/ith Cmtms, will enable us we trust, notwithstanding
our own very imperfect knowledge of Anglo-Saxon, to make ade-
quate use of them.
In respect to the collection (^ additional materials and their criti-
cal use, it is obvious that abundant helps have become accessible since
the days of Wilkins, although until now no attempt has been made
to employ them in one great and complete work. Not only are addi-
tional collections of MSS., as every one knows, now open, but both
their contents and those of other collections have been very laigely
searched, and catalogued, and published in print. Of printed works.

additional but important MSS. (unknown to them) in the Bodleian
Library and in that of C. C. C. Cambridge. There still remain,
among the valuable MSS. at S. Gall, some Irish Canons and frag-
ments of litui^es, etc. yet unpublished, which will enrich our
collection of early Irish documents.
All the works, however, above named are either restricted to
special departments of Wilkins's comprehensive subject, or include
also foreign documents of the class they treat of, or simply help to
elucidate the Church history of the period. The task is still left to
be done, which we now hope to do, of combining and employing
all these various classes of information, in the preparation of a
single and complete series of the documentary evidence of the Church
history of these islands prior to the Reformation.
To specif a few particulars in a little more detail i. The
" Origines" of the British Church were added by Wilkins as an
appendix at the end of his work, by an afterthought. And he
has merely reprinted there Spdman's long since obsolete specu-
lations upon the subject. The few documents relating to it at
the beginning of his first volume, like the mythical council held
by Ine A.D. 7 1 z, arc almost all pure fable. For th^ period then
antecedent to the SaxoiL invasion, which has left behind no docu-
mentary evidence whatever of its own, we have thought it best to
collect and arrange every Patristic or Continental allusion to the
British Church that can be found. The period which follows, that
of S. David and the settlement of the Wel^ Church, is somewhat
better provided from its own stores, although (with the exception
of Gildas) the preservation of such fragmentary remains as it has left,
is due either to Brittany or to Irish Churchmen. The former source
supplies some Penitential Canons (published first by Martene and
Durand) ; interesting, besides their curious contrast with the l^en-
dary conception of the British Church of that time, as throwing
back the beginning of the great development of the Penitential
system in the West, ^ich is usually attributed to Theodore, to the
Celtic Churches which he found in these islands. The latter have
preserved fragments of what seems like a second EphttU of Gildas
(hitherto, in part, unpublished). The non-historical portion of Gildas'
well-known first Efittola is also here reprinted, as bearing upon the
oyGooi^lc
PREFACE. Hi
probable hypothesis of a special British Old Latin Version of the
Bible : a supposition confirmed by the discovery also of a few frag-
ments of (apparently) such a version, here published for the first
time.' The series, which fijilows, of the documents of the Welsh
Church down to the time of its absorption into the English, is one
now for the first time made, and has been collected {as will be
seen) from various sources, as e.g. from Peckham's Roister, from
the Vatican Transcripts in the British Museum, etc., etc^ but in
particular from the original MS., now again come to U^t, of the
UAer LtmJ^vtMniy and from the extracts from the Red Book of
S. Asa{^ preserved among the Peniarth (formerly Hengwrt) MSS.:
for the courteous loan of which two MSS. we desire to record our
obligations, respectively, to P. Davies Cooke, Esq., of Owston, co.
York, and W. W. E. Wynne, Esq., of Peniarth. It need hardly be
added, that we have taken our extracts from Howel Dda's Laws
from Mr. Aneurin Owen, not from Dr. Wotton.
2. The late lamented Mr. Robertson's unwearied research and his-
torical skill have anticipated a la^ portion of our labours in respect
to the NtBthem Churches of the island. His volumes of Scottish Coun-
cils (in the modem sense of the word Scottish) have already digested
and arrai^ed the greater part of the mass of material relating to
the subject accumulated in various antiquarian publications or else-
where, and have advan<^ latgely upon Father Innes's brief outline
prefixed to Wilkins. The task still remains fisr ourselves of working
up also the fragmentary information relating to the period before
King David, where Mr. Robertson begins; a task largely facilitated
by such publications as Mr. Skene's Early « Chromcles" of Scotland
(Edinb. 1867}.
3. The labours of Dr. Reeves, Dr. Todd, Mr. King, and of the
other and non-ecclesiastical members c^ that great band of Iri^
scholars who have recently converted Irish early history and archae-
ology out of an almost proverbial chaos of wild and uncertified
fable into something approaching to coherent and critically digested
knowledge, render it now possible, almost for the first time, to pro-
duce a similarly sifted and critically arranged and edited series of
Irish Church documents of the ante-Norman period. The S. Gall
MSS. enable us to add the interesting collection of Irish Canons,

vhich was made apparently for Irish continental monasteries and
missions in the early part of the 8th century, and of which hitherto
only a few extracts have appeared in print (viz. in lyAchery, and
in Martene and Durand). The same source, and other Swiss
libraries, supply also some Irish liturgical fragments, published for
the first time (with the exception of one, which is also in a printed
but unpublished report of the Record Commission) in Bishop Forbes's
Pre^icc to the jirtathiut Miiial. A Penitential of Vinniaus ^. Finian),
and other Irish Penitential Canons, collected by Wassersdileben, repre-
sent in our collection that class of Irish early documents. The work
of the kind attributed to Cummian, and which largely coincides with
the genuine Theodore, contains also so much that comes from later
sources, as to make it plain, either (if the well-known Cummian, who
wrote upon the Easter controversy about A.D. 654, be the author
of it) that we have only in our MSS. a work founded upon his, or
(if the work as it stands is to be assigned to some other Cummian)
that its compiler lived as late as the 8th century, when there cer->
tainly was a Bishop Cummian at Bobbio, viz, about A.D. 711-744
(see Wasserschleben's Einleitung, pp. 64, 65). The latter seems the
more likely guess. And the document, so far as it is not mere
repetition, will be placed by us according to that date. All these
departments of our work are in effect additional to WiUdns, who
was acquainted very scantily with their subjects.
But there remains very much to be done in even, 4. the AngU-
Sttxam period, upon which Wilkins bestowed especial pains, and
which Mr. Thorpe has handled sid)sequently. Mr. Kemble's char-
ters have disclosed a number of additional councils, aJthough none
of much importance; besides throwing a great deal of li^t upon
questions c^ date or of genuineness. And Mr. Thorpe's ecclesias-
tical volume oi Amiatt Laws adds as we have said some valuable
documents, such e. g. as that which he entitles Iwttituter of Polity,
Civil and EeeUtiartical, and again JElfnds Pattorol Efirtle^ and that
entitled HjiamJo Diwdis Ctvitma, besides some minor additi(His. In
the department however both of codes or digests of canons gene-
rally, and of penitential canons, both Wilkins and Thorpe arc
unfortunate. The Uier Legum Ecelesiastieanmy which is one of the
two representatives of the former class in Wilkins, and is repro-

duced as ^ EcctesiMstksl lustitmtts" by Thorpe, is (as WiUcins himself
tells us, JTom Johnson) a translation of a work ctf Bishop Theodulf
of Orleans, who flourished c A.D. 797.
Penitentials are in still worse plight. Wilkins, omitting all
Irish or other Celtic documents of the kind, exhibits only one
specimen of those of Anglo-Saxon times, viz. the Penitential attri-
buted by him (as by others) to Egbert, which is in large part a
mere translation into Anglo-Saxon of three books of Hali^ar of
Cambray, who Bourished about kS>. 825. Mr. Thorpe, reprinting
a better text and translation of this, but still as Egbert's, has
added, under the pseudonym of Theodore's Penitential, the first
half, arbitrarily severed from the remainder, of what is really a
Fiankish Penitential of the 9th century ; of which Spelman, know-
ing nothing but its table of contents, had guessed that it was
the lost work of Theodore. And Kunstmann, noticing the difB-
culty of the case, has followed Tliorpe. The English editor indeed
has published only a part of the document in question, which
stands as a single whole in the MS. (C CX C. C 190, marked O by
him); CHnitting without notice six chapters at its commencement,
and twenty-two at its close, and the whole story of Furseus (as found
in Baeda) at the end of c. 45; while he severs the last two chapters
of the portion which he does print (putting them in different type
from the rest) as plainly later than Theodore, and leaves the reader
to suppose that the MS. ended with than. The very title and
contents of the first chapter of the portion thus groundlessly cut
away from the rest for publication, sufficiently prove, that a work
written when the " Oritwlmits frwhifis Gtrmams et Saxomi^" con*
taiaed settled Christian Churches, and by a writer who had ** learned
by experience" the customs of those Churches, could not possibly
be the work of one, in whose days those parts of Germany were sunk
in heathenism, and of whose lifi^ we know enough from Bxda to
know certainly that he never could have been in Germany at all. The
first paragrafdis also of c 20 are from a Roman Council of AJ). 721.
And other portions are ftom still later sounds, as &om Charle-
magne's Ct^tulart EeeUsi^lkum of A.D. 789, and from Halitgar in
839 (see Wasserschleben, Einl. p. 18). And the entire Penitential

is literally no ground for assigning it to Theodore beyond the guess
of Spelman, who had never seen it. The genuine Penitential of the
great Archbishop (so to call it, — for it is in truth a general collec-
tion of canons not exclusively penitential, and it was not composed
by Theodore at all, which accounts for Bxda's omitting to mention
it, but was compiled by a disciple as a record of Theodore's de-
cisions), lies after all side by side with that whidi has thus figured
under its name, in the library of Corpus College at Cambridge. It is
in C C C. C. 320 (designated N by Mr. Thorpe, and by some unac-
countable^ oversi^t described by him as Cott. Tib. A 3, although
he gives its locality correctly in his Preface) ; the MS., at the end
of which are the verses addressed to Bishop Hxddi, printed by
Mr. Thorpe, and which contains also the various readings (if those
can be so called, which are taken from one work and applied to
another and totally different one) printed also by Mr. Thorpe as
from N. Internal evidence led ourselves to pronounce this to be
the genuine Theodore. And the identical document has we find been
printed as Theodore's by Wasserschleben from ten foreign MSS., one
of them professedly a copy from the Cambridge MS. itself, while
another contains an express statement that the work was compiled
from the mouth of Tlieodore, and ^* consiliante venerabili Theodoro
Archiepiscopo," and by a <<discipulus Umbrensium" for the benefit
of the " Angli," the greater part of it having been communicated
by Theodore first to one Eoda a presbyter. Obligation also to a
" libellus Scotorum," but to no other preceding work, is specially
acknowledged. The existence in the work of all the quotations
professing to come from Theodore's Penitential, — a fact for which
we must here refer ourselves to Wasserschleben, — and the parenthe-
tical remark of the scribe (twice, viz. in I. v. 2, and 6), tliat he
could hardly believe such and such a canon to have come from
Theodore, — with other arguments for which we must here refer to
Wasserschleben, — confirm the inference from suitability of contents,
and render it certain that here at length we have the genuine work.
The genuine Penitential of Bxda has also been discovered and
published from foreign MSS. by the same Wasserschleben. It had
previously lain hid in numerous works of the kind, founded upon it,
but (as is usually the case with such compositions) enlai^ed and

altered by subsequent Church authorities ad iiUtim: e.g. in the
■works, one with Bscda's name and another without it, commonly
styled De lUimeJiis Pecemtonm; both of which appear to have been
all but entirely made up of the shorter and genuine document
ibund by Wasserschleben and of a similar document belonging to
Egbert.
The last-named Archbishop has suffered even more in the same
way, viz. by the assigning to him of later compilations^, founded upon
his, but with much the same latitude with wbidh oui own work is
** founded " upon that of Wilkins. We have first a short Peniten-
tial, found by Wasserschleben in a Vienna MS. and elsewhere, and
especially also in one at S.Gal1; whidi is attributed by its title to
Egbert, is independent of other documents in its contents, refers
to nothing subsequent to his dace, and generally is suitable to
him as its compiler. And at the end of this are added in the
Vienna MS. two chapters, the seomd professing to be made up
" de Jicth lameti Bomifaeii Arcint^icopl" or, as it Stands in another
entirely difiercnt compilation which happens to quote the same
chapter, « tdictie saneti Bmifiuii " while the MS. at S. Gall (which
Wasserschleben apparently had not himself seen) adds at the end,
but without these additional chapters, the words "editto Bonifacii
Epircepi." The constant interdiange of MSS. between Egbert and
Boni^e is known from Boniface's own letters ; and those who
used in Germany the Penitential of the former, might naturally
add to their copy some further rules made by the latter. Here
then we believe we have the genuine and original work of the
York Archbishop. For we have, next, two works, as above said,
IV JtemttSit PetcMtffnm, one with Baeda's name, the other without it,
sometimes assigned to Bseda and sometimes to Egbert, but really
made up almost wholly of the two shorter and (as here assumed)
genuine works of both. And then, thirdly, we find in Bodl. MSS.

first Book) as Excerfth de Caneniiiu tte. pemtentitUt lUri ad rtmtdimn

limited expressly (by the closing words of that book) to the first
book of the treatise, while the other three are "excerpts" from
Fathera, Cancms, etc^ and contain a systematicaliy arranged trea-
tise, compiled by a member of a religious house at the bidding c^ his
rector, but without the slightest reference to E^iert. And the first
book of this oompilatioo contains the identical genuine work of
Egbert as ahrady assumed j but i. prefixes to it 21 ctfitul*^ mani-
festly belonging to time and country of Frank Emperors, the 7th
of them directing prayers to be made " pro vita et imperio domini
Imperatoris et filiorum ac filiarum salute;" and 3. inserts after it,
but apparently as Egbert's, fi}rms of prayer and litanies etc for omi-
fession, which are certainly (judging by the invocations) Anglo-Saxon.
Lastly, we have, in Cott. MSS. Nero A. i, and in C. C. C. C K. z
(a Worcester MS.), these same ai cMpkitla^ followed by two com-
paratively short series of excerpts, agrceii^ largely but by no means
entirely both with each other and with the much longer series in the
Bodl. MS. Bk. IV., and both attributed to Egbert; the first of them
printed as Egbert's Exeerfthxts by Wilkins and Thorpe, the second
abstracted and in part translated by Johnson, and both of them con-
taining extracts from the capitularies of Charles the Great And
we have also a fiirther statement of Leiand and Bale, that " Hucarus
Levita," aComishman of probably the 1 ith century, prefixed to some
homilies of his own, now lost, certain '* Excerptiemts Egterti." The
inference seems naturally to follow upon the case thus stated, that
the shorter work first named is the only genuine one, — that Bodl.
MSS. 718 is only Egbert's as regards this portion of its first Book,
and perhaps the confessional appended to that portion, — and that
the various compilers of the several sets erf Exctiftio»fi took the
whole of the four Bodleian books to be %beif s, and put t(^ether
accordingly, undw Egbert's name, what had really become (wrongly)
associated with him through the combining of such Exttrptioxes with
Egbert's genuine work by the compiler of the Bodleian MS.
We shall have, then, in our Anglo-Saxon period the three genuine
oyGooi^lc
PREFACK - xvii
works of respectively Theodore, Bieda, and Egbert, now for the first
time published i;i England. Of works founded upon theirs, or of
translations from foreign documents, only those will claim admis-.
sion at their respective dates, which i. are not mere repetitions,
and i. obtained authority in our own Churches as being adopted by
Saxon Archbishops or in any similar way.
Passing from Penitentials to the Easter contFOversy, we shall
have to add tq Wilkins here also, as under the Iri^ Church the
tetter of Cuminian, so under the Anglo-Saxon that of Aldbelm.
That of CeoU^id stands at present in Wilkins as the sole docu-
ment of the kind. The interesting tract among the Holkham
MSS> upon the Roman law, hitherto unpublished, which Palgrave
attributed to Aldbelm, is certainly not his, and beloi^ to a date
not far from the Conquest.
What has been said will we hope ^ew abundantly, both that
cur propoacd work brings bother important documents hitherto
scattered or inaccessible, and that it adds also a &ir amount of
material now for the first time published at all. For further detail
we must refer to the notes and explanations attached to eadi docu-
ment in its place.
We have found considerable difficulty in defining precisely and
Gonsistently the classes of documents to be respectively omitted or
inserted in a collection like that of Wilkins or our own. A rigid
ezckision of everything except literal canons of formal councils
would be a wide departure from Wilkins's practice (not to say,
also, from his title-page), would be very far from producing an
adequate modem representation of his work, would not fiimish
anything like a complete collection of authoritative Church docu-
ments or laws, and would indeed leave a. very small skeleton of
Church documents of any kind for any, and none at all for some
of the earlier, periods or divisions of our insular Churches. On
the other hand, the inclusion of every document relating to
ecclesiastical things or persons at all, would issue in a work too
unwieldy for use, in large part of very narrow interest, needlessly
repeating the contents of collections already existing, and above
all, fat too heavy for the already over-tasked power of editors.

nature of a law or canon, every record of the existence of a synod
even if its acts are lost, every document relating to the discipline
of the Church or to its relations to the State or to the method of
appointment to Bishoprics, or in any way illustrating the rules of
procedure or the ecclesiastical practice or principles of the times,
seems to fall within that line. Lituigies are the only lai^c class
of authoritative Church documents which seem to constitute a
distinct and extensive department of their own; far too much so
to allow of their being properly treated as a ' mere portion of a
laiger and more general work. And these therefore are omitted
fixjm our pages, with the small exception of certain ancient frag-
ments, interesting historically as much as liturgically, and which
also take up very little sfoce. We have thought it best, in
short, to aim at a collection of what the French call PiStes Jiati^-
eatrves, save that there is of course in our work no precedent history
which the documents are allied to sustain. And we have rather
looked to the interest attaching to each case, than sought to draw
a hard line to which it might be often inconvenient and almost
out of our power to adhere.
It has been impossible to collate every document with the original
MS. We have done so wherever we cc^d ; and in such cases dte
the MS. as our authority, and if the document have been already
printed elsewhere, add the words — « and in" such and such a book. If
we have depended wholly on a printed authority, we have quoted either
that authority simply, or the MS. as " in " such and such a book.
In ronclusion, we venture to express a hope, that although the
arrangement of the subject has limtted the contents of the present
and first volume to Churches so far from our present times, or so
narrow in extent, as to be laigely of antiquarian perhaps more than
historical interest, yet even here we shall have thrown light upon many
questions still practically important. The groundlessness of the so
ofiten alleged *' Orientalism" of the early British Church, — oriental
in no other sense than that its Christianity originated like all
oyGooi^lc
PREFACE. xix
Christianity iii Asia, and fouod its way to Britain throt^h (most
probably) Lyons, and not through the then equally Greek Qiurdi
(^ Rome, but without imprinting one sii^Ie trace upon the British
Church itself of any one thii^ in a peculiar sense Greek or
Oriental, — the sveeping away of fictitious personages like King
Lucius, or of gratuitous assumptions like that of S. Paul's personal
preaching in these islands, — the placing the British Easter contro-
versy upon its right footing, once more, of a mere confusion of
cycles, — these and the like results, whatever ingenious partizans
on either side may make of them, are certainly interesting to our
patriotism, and may perhaps be made remotely practical for present
polemics. Much again among the specially Welsh documents is
(^efly interesting, except to the inhabitants of the Principality, itself,
in the way of illustrating national character as impressed vividly upon
a national Church, rather than in any larger sense. But other points
emerge in the volume of stilt living interest. The futility, injustice,
and utter mischief to discipline, of Papal appeals, considered solely
Id their practical aspect, and as exhibited in the cases of Bishop
Urbaji and of Giraldus in the beginnings respectively of the 12th
and 13th centuries, — the ccmtest between Chapter, Crown, and Pope,
for die right <^ nomination to Bishoprics, a contest complicated in
Wales by questions of race, and of English domination,— tiic well-
known Archiepiscopal summons to a synod in 1 1 25, mentioning
** pnmission " given to the Papal legate to hold it, — the repeated
mention of diocesan synods, — the freedom and self-government
accorded to the native Welsh Church of almost all dates, and
diminished gradually as Henry IIL and Edward L brought English
law to bear upcm the subject, fori passu with their gradual and
attempted Anglicising of Wales, — the fearful abuse of spiritual
powers and the exceeding worldllness of the Church, exhibited in
all the relations of England to Wales during the same period, and
especially in the monstrous wickedness with which excommunica-
tions and interdicts were scattered about at random, while the darker
shades <tf the picture are relieved by the unselfish charity and
piety, however oddly expressed, of such as Archbishop Peckham,
and by the obviously sincere religion of Edward himself, — the
commencement of that bane of the Welsh Church, the imposing

upon it of a clergy that could not speak Welsh, and the treating its
sees as mere pieces of preferment, — ail these arc surely subjects which
have a living interest, and belong to questions of which the moving
forces are active in the present day. And our next volume will
include a subject of certainly very pressing interest, namely, the
early documents of the Churdi of Ireland.
For the present volume, Mr. Haddan is responsible. The second,
which will contain the early Scottish and Irish documents, besides
some minor divisions, also fells to Mr. Haddan. And Professor
Stubbs will complete the Saxon period in vols. III. and IV. The
second and third volumes will it is hoped appear by the end of 1)169
or shortly after.
W& have finally the agreeable task of tendering our thanks for
much and courteous help, to the Librarians and Staff of the Bodleian
Library, — thanks none the less heartily due, because their courtesy
is alike extended to all who need it, — to Professor Wcstwood, — to
the Rev, Dr. Reeves, — to the Rev. George Williams of King's, and
to Mr. Brad<ihaw the Librarian of Cambridge University Library, — to
the Master and Fellows of Corpus College, Cambridge, and cspe- .
cialiy to the Rev, W, M. Snell, for ready access to their invaluable
MSS.,— to the Rt Rev. Bishop Forbes of Brechin,— to the Rt. Hon.
the Earl of Leicester, for courteously permitting acces8.to his library
at Holkham, and to the Rev. Canon CoUyer, for kind help in making
that permjssios available, — to Mr. Hardy for the loan of some of the
unpublished Reports of the Record Commission, — to the Rt. Rev.
Bishop Greith of S. Gall, and to Kerr F. E. Buchegger, the Librarian
of the S. Gall Library,— to Mr. C. H. E. Carmichael of Trinity
College, Oxford, and of the British Museum, — to the Rev.^Lewis Gil-
bertson. Fellow of Jesus College, Oxford, and to Mr. Alfred Stowe,
Fellow of Wadham Collie, for much Welsh information ^ and to
many others for special assistance, to whom severally we have
expressed our thanks at the particular passage to whidi that assist-
ance referred.

APPENDIX A.
DATE OF INTRODUCTION OF CHRISTIANITY INTO BRITAIN.
I. Statements respecting — (a) British Christians at Rome, (fi) British
Christians in Britain, (y) Apostles or Apostolic men preaching in
Britain, in the First Century ; — rest upon either guess, mistake, or
fable.
a. 1. Claudia, mentioned in the same verse with Pudens, 3 Tim. iv. jt
(c. A. D. 68), as Christians, is conjectured to be the same with Claudia
{"peregrina," and " edita Britannia"), the newly married wife of Pudens,
mentioned by Martial, IV. 13, XI. 53 fc. A. D. 90 — 100), And the same
Pudens has been identified with the (imperfect)' name of the giver of a
site for a heathen temple in an inscription found at Chichester (Gale, ap.
Horiley, Brit. Rom, 336.) Martial IV. 13, however, mav have been written,
although not published, as early as A. D. 68.
2. Pomptmia Grtga'na, accused and acquitted, A.D. 57, before her hus-
band, Aulus Plautius, " qui ovans se de Britanniis retuUt," of an " externa
superstitio" (Tacit. A. XIII. 32), is assumed to have been both a Christian
and a Briton.
&. Bran, the father of Caradt^ or Caractacus (followed by others down
to the time assigned to Lucius), is alleged by the Triadi and other still later
Welsh documents, to have been converted CO Christianity when captive at
Rome, A.D. 51 X58, and to have introduced the Gospel into his native
country on his return. The story is inconsistent with Tacit., A. XII. 17, 35,
,^6, H. III. 45 ; and Dio Cass., lib. LX. zo ; and the earliest wimess to it is
posterior in date by probably a thousand years {Slipkens, Liter, of Q/mty,
III. A).
y. I, S. Paul is said by S. Clem. Rom. {Ep. ad Cor. i. 5.) to have preached
<V T^ OKiToX^ ml <V T^ ivatt, and to have taught Skor rhr K6iTfior ml IttX tA npiia
r^t dMTOBt. Similarly vague statements are in 5. Basil. Selettc. {Oral. XXXIX.
p. 2l8, Paris l6»l), saying of S. Paul, that iramxov r^r oJitoii/uhji aifm^at, —
and in S. Jerome {Comm. in Amos V. 0pp. III. 1412), that " usque ad His-
panias tenderet (Paulus), et man rubro, imo ab Oceano usque ad Oceanum,
cunerct," — and in 5", Chrysostom (Horn, in Rom. I. a, IX. 431. Montfauc.; and
' rMt are ill ihe letlm nnuinine.

see also Horn, de Caph £u/rcp. 14, ii. III. 399), that from Illyricum S. Paul
went nt a>iht T^ yift nrjifaruii — and in Etatbius (Demonsl. Evang. III. 5, quoted
above under A.D. 300) — and in Tktodoret {Grac. Afftct. Cural. IX., quoted
above under A. D, 400-433) : the two latter however specifying Britain, but
only- as Christianized before their own time by some disciples unspecified.
Tieodere/ia another passage (lii Psalm, cxvi. 2; 0^. I. 1435) is more pre-
cise ; — 'YoTtpm lurroi ml r^c 'ItoXuit tiTf|9ij (6 navXos) tai t'lT rat Xwaylas aifiUtTO,
m rote rr t^ >«Xiry« tuuirt/uniuc r^mt T^* ixpAtiar ir|]o<rqi*yM. But the islands
here are simply Crete, the authorities for the statement being expressly Rom.

I'll — Kai rkt Z«vW tariXaffii ml tit rnpa tSuij Spo^ow, rfpi t^ IkiiKrKaXiar Xo/i-
soSo wpoir^rrjwt (O/^. III. 696). — Vmonttiu Forlunalm in 580 ( V. S. Martini,
III. 491—494, /.3a I, ed. Brmver.) asserts that the jEeorAti^ of S. Paul (" stylus
ille"), passing north and southed everywhere,
Transit et oceanmn vel qua facit insula portum,
Quasquc Britannus habet terras atque ultima Thyle.
The ranie Fortunatus limits S. Paul's personal travels in distant regions to
Illyricum {Episi. ad Martin. Gallic. Episc. Poem. V. i.l. ib. p. lit)). Lastly,
S^krtmius, Pabiarch of Jerusalem (A. D. 639-636), Serm. dt Natal. SS. Petri
et PauU, is quoted by the Magdeburg Centuriators and Others, as bringing
S. Paul in person to Britain, but there is nothing to that effect in the printed
fragments of Sophronius himself And his authority is worthless, if there
were. There is, in short, no authority earlier than the Welsh Triads, some
c^ which are headed with S. Paul's name {Williamt, Antig. of Cymry, p. 60),
for special respect felt towards S. Paul in Britain, and none whatever for his
personal preaching in this island.
3. 5'. Peter is brought to Britain by the anon. Comment, de SS. Pet. et Paul.,
attributed to Simeon Melaphrastes, c. A.D. 900 {ap.Acl. SS. 39 /wi. F. 416).
Innocent J. {K.J). ^oa-^i'j , Epist. ad Decent.) merely affirms (and that untruly),
that Italy, Gaul, Spain, Africa, Sicily, " insulasque interjacentes," were con-
vetted by missionaries from S. Peter, or from the see of Rome ; — a state-
ment, neither referring to S. Peter personally, nor including Britain.
3. 5'. Simon Zelotes is taken to Britain by the (spurious) Symps. Dorotkei
(6th century), and by Niceph. Callist. II. 40, and by the Greek Menol<^iet
(^.380. ed. Pinell. Venet. 1621 ; et ap. Canii., Antiq. Lectt. III. 429, Basnage)
ad Mai. X. The Roman Martyrologj', and Bede'a, make him a martyr in
Persia.
4. S. Philip the Apostle, came to Gaul, and thence sent missionaries to
4e barbarous nations, bordering on the ocean, according to hidarm {De
PP. Utriusque Tetlamenti, A.D. 595 « 636), from whom the statement is
cojued by Freculphut Lexaviensis (9th century), and fiom him by Will.
Malm.{Anliq. Glaslm., isth century), who adds the history of a mission
to Britain.

5. S.Jamts the Gireat, is brought to Britain by the (forged) Chrm. of
FUwtus Dexler,p. 77. Litgd. 1627.
6. S.Jokn, asserted (erroneously) by Bishop Cobnan at Whitby in 664 (Bad.
H. E. in. 25) to have originated the British practice respecting Easter, is
supposed to have converted certain Britons at Rome, by the Rev. Mr. Ro-
berts, Chron. of Kings of Brilain, Aff. p. 294, Lend. 1811. And the
certain "island" {Terlidl. Praser. Har. XXXVI. Opp. 1155.) to which S.
John himself was banished, is identified by the same anti(]nary ( Visii. Sfr"
mm, i8i3, as quoted in Chron. of Anc. Brit. Ck. p. 15, Lond. iSrs) with
Britain itself.
7. Arislobuliu in Rom. xvi. 10, is said to have been ordained by S. Paul
a Bishop and sent by him into Britain, in the (spurious) Syiups. Dorothei, and
the Greek Mmohgits [March 15, p. 131. ed. Pitull.). The tradition seems
to have filtered into the Welsh Triads, where one Arwystli Hen appears in
connection with Bran, etc. There is no rea] evidence to shew that S, Paul's
Aristobulus was a Christian at all, althot^h probably he was of Herod's
family, and therefore a Jew {Tac. A. XIII. 7 ; Jos^h. Aniiq. XX. 5). The
Aristobulus in the Menologies is called " brotlier of the Aposde Barnabas."
8. fostph of Arimalhaa, as a disciple of S, Philip, and with others, filb a
large space in legends of Glastonbmy Abbey, which are of [X)st-NoTmaii
date {Ussher) and first saw light in Will. Malm. {Ant^. Glaslon., izth cen-
tury).
The general statement made by Gildas (His/. VI. M.BJI. 8) is equally
groundless with the above. He simply transfers to the particular case of
Britain, with which (as used by bis sole authority) it has no connection what-
ever, language of Eustbius (Hist. II. a, 3, inkrpr. Ruffin., and CAron.) respect-
ing the general spread of the Gospel in the reign of Tiberius (v. Schiill, Dt
Ecd. Bril. tt Seal. Hist. Fontilms; and see also Ussher).
11. Evidence alleged for the existence of a Christian Church in
Britain during the Second Century is similarly unhistorical.
I. There are no other general statements on the subject than that of
Nmniiu; who, however, knows of no British Chrisdanity at this time or
earlier, except as connected with Lucius, of whom below. Justin Martyr
(Dial. c. Tryph. 117) merely speaks in a vague and rhetorical tone of the
universal spread of the Gospel '.
On the other hand, —
S. Ihbs«ub, Adv. Har. I. 3. [c. A. D. 176.], enumerating all Churches,
and those in the West one by one, knows of none in Britain. — Kal ofri ol <■

country as a whole dated only from a great missionary effort in the time of
Decius, c. A.D. 250 (v, Mtusuel, ad Irenawn, p. 71).
2. The story of Locios rests solely upon the later Ibim ^ of the Catalogtu
PoHtifieum Romanormn {ap. Acti. SS. April i, /. xxin.) which was written c.
A.D. 530, and which adds to the Viia EieuiAeri {A.D. 171-186 or i79-r94)T
in the earlier Catak^ue, among other things, that —
Hie (Eleuthenis) accepit epistolam a Ludo Britannie R^e at Christianus
efficeretuT per ejus mandatum.
Bat, i. These words are not in the original Ca/aiogut, written shortly after
A D. 353 (<^. Ac/i. SS. f2.), which merely states the name and length of
Pontificate.
iL They were manifestly written in the time and tone of Prosper, with the
spirit of whose notices of the missions ofOennanua andPalladius in 419 and
431 they precisely tally.
Bada copies the Roman account {//. £., I. 4, V. 14, and Chron. in an. 180),
giving however two di£fering dates, and adding the names of the Emperors,
vbom he calls Marcus Antoninus Verus and Lucius Aurelius Commodus.
G3das (A. D. 560), his usual authority for British Church history, knows
nothing of Lucius.
The earliest British testimony to the stoiy is that of Nennitu (ninth centaiy,
c zviii). — Anno Dominicse Incamadonis clxiv.s Lucius Britanicus Rex cum
Dniversis regulis totius Britanniae baptismum susceperunt, missa legatione ab
tmperatofibus Romanis et a Papa Romano Euaristo : Locins agnomine Lleuer

and fresh details— by the Liber Lantlaoensis (12th century, p-65}. — Anno ab
Incainatione Domini clvi'o Lucius Britannorum Rex ad Eieutho'iuni duo-
decimum apostolicEe sedis Papam legatos suosv misit, implorantes juxta ejus
admonitionem ut Christianus fieret, quod ab eo impetravil, etc. etc. — To
which Will. Malm. {Antig. GlofJan.) adds, that " venenmt erpj, Eleutberio
mittente, prsedicatores Britanniam duo viri sanctissiini, Phaganua scilicet
atque Denivianus (prout carta Sancti Patricii gestaque Britonum testantur) :"
whom also he brings to Glastonbury. And Geoffrey of Monmouth add»
many still more circumstantial details. — And, thirdly, the Triads connect the
sUxy directly with Llandaff, where " Lleirwg made the first church, which was
the first in the Isle of Britain," and " first gave lands and civil privileges tcr
such as first embraced the faith in Christ " ( Williami, Aniiq. of Cymry, p. 69).
There are also churches in the see of Llandaff dedicated to Lleirwg, Ddyfan,
Ffagan, and Medwy {Rett, Welti Saints).
Finally, the fictitious letter of Eleutherus {ap. Spelnum, /. 31. and Wiliau,
IV. Af^. 703) occurs among other plainly fabulous l^ends relating to Wales
in certain spurious additions to the laws of Edward the Confessor, in the Libtr
Custumarum (J^. 631, 633, ed. Riley, i860) belonging to the Guildhall of
London, a compilation (according to Mr. Riley) of the latter part of the reign
of Edward II., from which it was first made public by Harrison and Stow,
and then by Lambard, ' (ipxaunmn. pp. 142, 143 (Caittai. 1644). And some
person has thought it worth while also to foi^e two coins of Lucius, gold
and silver respectively (see Ussher), of which the former is still preserved in
the British Museum.
It would seem, therefore, that the bare story of the conversion of a British
prince temp. ElaUheri originated in Rome during the fifth or sixth centuries,
almost 300 or more years after the date assigned to the story itself ; — that Bede,
in the eighth century, introduced it into England, and that by the ninth cen-
tury it had grown into the conversion of the whole of Britain ; — while the Ml-
fledged fiction, connecting it specially with Wales and with Glastonbuty, and
entering into details, grew up between centuries nine and twelve.
Another legend, of foreign growth, represents Lucius as baptized by one
Marcellus, bishop either of Tongres or of Treves, c. A. D. 386 or later {Gesta
7>etierortan, ap. Lappenb. Hist of Anglo-Saxon Kings, I. 375, Ir. Thorpe,
and see Vssher, Primerd. e. iv^ : and anoth^, that one Timotheus was sent

tii. Near Vertdam, over S. Aiban's grave, destroyed before the time of
Bede. — Postea redeunte tempomm Christianorum serenitate ecclesia est
mirandi opens atque ejus martyris condigna exstructa (Bad. H. E. I. 7).
iv. At Caerleon, two, dedicated respectively to Julius and Aaron, and a
tfaird, the " metropolitana tolius CambriE" (Girald^ Cambr., Itin. Camir. 1. 5).
The last is identified by Geoffrey of Monmouth (IX. la) with that dedicated
to Aaron- Their existence is extremely quesdohable : but the Ii&. Landav.
p. a 15 seems to indicate that there was a " territorium martyrum Jnlii et
Aron " at Caerleon daring the ninth century.
V. At Bangor yteoed, near Chester. — Sunt certe adhuc (12th cent) ibi tot
senumd paiietes ecclesiarum, tant£ turbse niinaruin, quants vix alibi (Will.
Malm., G. P. IV. ; and similarly, G. R. I. 3) : confounding however, pos-

sibly, the ruins of a Roman town (Bovium — so Smith, ad loc. Sad^ with
those of a Britanno-Roman monastei?, and cwrtainly Bangor near Chester
with Bangor the Bishop's see, Leland {Ilin. K33) testifies that the ruins of
Bangor Yscoed were partially visible in his time.
VL At Glcuioniury-— The story of the " velnsta ecclesia," at first " vergea ;"
then covered by Faulinus of Rochester " ligneo tabulatu " and " plumbo a
summo usque deorsom," and finally supplanted by the "roajor ecdesia" of
Kii^ Ina {Will. Maim., Aritiq. Glaslm.), is sufficient evidence that the
Saxcms found a British church there when refoundii^[ the monastery. The
West Saxons conquered the district A. D. 65a * 658 {Anglo-Sax. Chron.),
being already Christians ; and the monastery apparendy was never de-
stroyed.
vii. At Whitheriu in GaUawqy. — See above, under A. D. 401, S. Ninias.
viii. Near Evaham. — Tradition, in the time of bishop Ecgwin (begbuung:
of the 8th century), described the site of his monastery as " eccleaiolam ab
aotiquo habentem ex opere forsitan Brituinonun" {Will. AfaJm., G.P, IV.)
fi. Cfanches of which traces still exist
ix. At Dover, in the Casde, probably of fourth or fifth century (see PuekUt
Chwch <md Fortrtss 0/ Dover CastU, 1864).
X. At Rieh&orough, in Kent, in the Roman camp, a ruin in the form of a
cross on a platform of Roman woHc {Gougk's Camden, I. 34a ; Roaeh Smith,
Anliq. of RicUorm^h, Recuiver, and Lymne, pp. 43 sq. 1850), possibly the
base of a chapel.
xi. At Rtcuiver, in Kent, an old chapel with Roman bricks {Nichols,
Bibl. Topogr. Brit., /. 170); a Christian church in very early Saxon times,
and probably also under the Britons (see Roaeh Smith, ib. p. 199).
xii. At Lyminge in Kent, between Doruvemnm (Canterbury) and Portus
Lcmanis (Lymne). — " There is great probability that a Christian church
existed on the site of the present building (the church) in the Roman period.
The Roman foundations discoverable at the south-east angle of the chancel,
and under that part of the wall of the churchyard corresponding with it, and
which, tc^ether with the remarkable half arch that intervenes, mark the site of
the aquilonalis porticus, — the tide oiBasilica already given to it in the seventh
century, — and the fact that a Roman legion was regularly stationed at
LympiK, — give weight to this probabili^." And again, — " The Roman
wall which was discovered while these sheets were in the press, has since been
exposed, so far as it can be tntced ; disclosing the foundations of an apsidal
building having an outer and inner waU, the (modem) church resting upon
a portion of the former: remains of Roman work abound in the present
church." Jenkins, Hist. o/Ch. 0/ Lyminge, 1859.
xiii. At Brixworth in Northamptonshire. — " There seems little doubt that
this church was originally a Roman basilica, probably of the fourth <x fifth
oyGooi^lc

century, of which the outer walls have been destroyed, and the arches walled
up.. ..Tile aisles are divided by cross walls, as if they had been originally
divided into small chambers or chapels. The western porch has Roman
aiches or doorways on the north, south, and west sides ; the Anglo-Saxon
belfry bas been built upon this Roman porch, probably in the it th century.
...Tbe original Roman apse at the east end has been destroyed in order to
carry out a longer church." (Rielantm's Archikcl. in Englatid, ed. Parker,
p. 74, Oxf. iStis). There was a Saxon church at firixwoith before the end
of the lib century {Htigo Ctmdidus, p. 9, ed. Sparkes). And see Areh. Assoc.
Journal /or 1863, pp. 185 sq.

i. An inscription in Latin, obscure but plainly Christian, is carved upon
tbe upper part of a. Roman pagan monument, now let into the (Norman)
tower of the church of S.Mary It W^ord, Lituoln (Stuhley, I tin. II. R
Ixiv; NUhoU, BibUoth. Topt^r. Brit. III. 70, PI. iii. fig. la), which appears
to have been once headed with the symbol of the cross {TroUofie, in Arclueel.
Journ. March, i860).
iL At Caerleon, a sepulchral stone, upon which remains part of a " rough
sc<»ing " resembling " tbe rude representation of a palm branch, which
generally denotes the tomb of a Christian Roman" {Lee, Isca Silurum, p. 3).
Tbe pagan D. M., which appears to have been also on the stone, was, as is
weD known, retained for several centnries, irrespective of its meaning.
iiL A Britanno-Roman sarcophagus, supposed to be Christian, found at
Bamu'i^ in JTm/ (Roach Smith, CoUectanea Antiqua, 1. 184). But see Mr.
Smith's remark, ib. p. 104.
iv. A stone found at Baih {Horsley, BrU. Rom., Somerset, no. iv. and p. 3 3 ^),
with some figures conjectured to represent Christian symbols {M^Cmi, Brit.
Rom. Inscriptions, pp. 181, 183, Lond. 1 863), but combined with an inscrip-
tion begiiming with the Pagan D. M.

Catterick in Yorkshire (.ilrirAiEo^yiwma/, vol. vt p. 8t. 1849).

Nortbimiberland, in 1736, with six different compartments, in each of which
is tbe monogram {Hodgson's Northtcmi. III. ii. 346).

MONUMENTAL REMAINS OF THE BRITISH CBURCH DURING THE
ROMAN PERIOD.
I. Chitbchxb. — [Gildat XVIII. — Renovant (Biitones) ecclesias' ad solum
Qsqoe destractas ; basilicas sanctonim martyrum fnndant, constrannt, perfi-
dnnt, ac velut victrida signa passim propalant : — a passage borrowed from
Ens^ns, but testifying at least to the general existence of churches in later
Roman Britain. On the other hand, these churches were commonly of a
perishable kind'. — Ecclestam, ..moreScottormn, nonde lapide sedderobore
secto totam composoit i {Bad. H. E. III. 35). And, Ecdesiam de lapide,
insoliCo Brittonibus more, fecerit Nynia4 {Id. ih. 4 ; and see lb. II. 14, and
///. 23). And so also the traditional account of the original^church at Glas-
Kmb[ii7, — Quandam capeDam, inferius per circuitum virgis torquatis muros
perfideotes, consummaverunt ( fTiZf. Maim., Atitiq. GUuhn.)^
a. CbuTches recorded to have existed.
i. At CaiiUrbury. — S. Martin's — Erat autem prope ipsam civitatem ad
orientem ecclesia in honorem Sancd Martini antiqnitus facta, dum adhuc
Romani Brittaniam incolerent (Bad. H. E. I. 26, — ^writing of A. D. 597).
The church may have been dedicated to S. Martin if built after A. D. 400.
ii. Also at Cati/erdury. — S. Saviour's (now the Cathedral) — Recuperavit
(Ai^ustinus) in ea (regia dvitate Domvemi) ecclesiam, qnam inibi antiqup
Romanorum fidelium opere factam fnisse didicerat, et eam in nomine Sapcd
SalvatoTis Dei et Domini nostri Jesu Christi sacravit (Bad. If. E. I. 33).
iiL Near Vtruiam, over S, Alban's grave, destroyed before the time of
Bede. — Fostea redeunte temporum Christianonmi serenitate ecclesii^ est
mirandi operis atque ejus martyris condigna exstnicta {Bad. H. E. I, 7).
iv. At CaerUm, two, dedicated respectively to Julius and Aaron, and a
third, the " metropoUtana todus Cambriie" {Girald. Ctmir., Itin. CamSr. I, 5).
The last is idendiied by Geoffrey of Moiunouth (IX. 1 2) with diat dedicated
to Aaron. Th«r existence ia extremely queatiphable : but the Lii. Landav.
p. 215 seems to indicate that there was a " territorium martyrum JulJi et
Aron " at Caerleon during the ninth century.
V. At Bangor Yseoti, near Chester. — Sunt certe adhuc (lath cent) ibi tot
semirnti parietes ecclesiarum, tante turfase niinarum, quants vix alibi ( WtU.

sibly, the niins of a Roman town (Bovium — so Smith, ad he. Strd.) with
those of a Britanno-Roman monastery, and certainly Bangor near Chester
with Bangor the Bishop's see. Leland (liirt. V.31) testifies that the rains of
Bailor Yscoed were partially visible in his time.
vL At Glastonbury. — The story of the " vetusta ecclesia," at first " vergea ;"
then covered by Paduins of Rochester " ligneo ubulatu " and " plumbo a
summo usque deofsnm," and finally supplanted by the "major ecclesia" of
King Ina {Will. Malm., Antiq. Glaslon.), is sufficient evidence that the
Saxons found a British church there when refounding the monastery. The
West Saxons conquered the district A. D. 65a ■ 658 {Anglo-Sax. Chrm.),
being already Christians ; and the monastery apparendy was never de-
stroyed.
vii. At Whitherne in Gaiiowt^. — See above, under A. D. 401, S. Ninias.
viiL Near £vaham. — Tradition, in the time oi bishop Ecgwin (beginning
of the 8th century), described the site of his monastery as " ecclesiolam ab
antiquo habentem ex opere forsitan Britannwum" ( WiU. Malm., G. P. IV.)
fi. Cfaorches of which traces still exist.
ix. At Bmier, in the Castle, probably of foorth or fifth century (see PticWt
Chm-ck and Fortrus 0/ Dover CaslU, 1864).
X. At Riehborough, in Kent, in the Roman camp, a ruin in the form of a
cross on a platform of Roman work {Gtmgk't Camden, I. 34a ; Roaeh Smlft,
Anliq. of Richborwtgh, Reailver, and fymtie, pp. 43 sq. 1850), possibly the
base of a chapel.
xl At Rtmtver, in Kent, an old chapel with Roman bricks {Nichols,
Bibl. Topogr. Brif., 1. 170); a Christian church in very early Saxon times,
and probably also imder the Britons (see Roach Smith, ib. p. 199).
xii. At fyminge in Kent, between Doruvemum (Canterbury) and Portus
Lemanis (Lymne). — " There is great probability that a Clwistian church
existed on the site of the present building (the chm'ch) in the Roman period.
The Roman foundations discoverable at the south-east angle of the chancel,
and under that part of the wall of the churchyard corresponding with it, and
which, together with the remarkable half arch that intervenes, mark the site of
the aqtdlonalis porticus, — the title oi Basilica already given to it in the seventh
century,— and the fact that a Roman legion was regularly stationed at
Lympne, — give weight to this probability." And again, — " The Roman
wall which was discovered while these sheets were in the press, has since be^i
exposed, so far as it can be traced ; disclosing the foundations of an apsidal
building having an onter and iimer wall, the (modem) church resting upon
a portion of the former; remains of Roman work abound in the present
church." Jenkins, Hist, of Ch. of Lyminge, 1859.
xiii. At Brixworth in Northamptonshire. — " There seems little doubt that
this church was originally a Roman basilica, probably of the fourth or fifth

centary, of which the outer walls have been destroyed, and the arches walled
up.. ..The aisles are divided by cross walls, as if tbey had been originally
divided into small chambers or chapels. The western porch has Roman
arches or docHways on the north, south, and west sides ; the Anglo-Saxon
belfry has been bailt upon this Roman porch, probably in the r ith century.
...The original Roman apse at the east end has been destroyed in order to
cairy out a longer church." {Riekntan't ArthiUct. m England, ed. Parker,
p. 74, Oxf. r863). There was a Saxon church at Brixwofth before the &A
of the 7th century {Hugo Candidas, p. 9, ed. Sparkes). And see Arfh. Assoc.
Jmnui/or r863, pp. 185 sq.
3. SePUI«HRAL HOKimKHTBf.
L An inscription in Latin, obscure but plainly Christian, is carved upon
the upper part of a Roman pagan monument, now let into the (Norman)
tower of the church of S. Mary I' Wigford, Lincoln {Stuiuley, Itin. II. PI.
bciv; Nichols, Bibliolk. Topogr. Brit. III. 70, PI. iiL fig. 12), which appeari
to have been once headed with the symbol of the cross (TroUc^, in Archaol.
Journ. Ufarck, i860).
iL At Caerleon, a sepulchral stone, upon which remains part of a " rough
scOTing" resembling " the rude representation of a palm branch, which
generally denotes the tomb of a Christian Roman" {Lte, Isca Silurum, p. 3).
The pagan D. M., which appears to have been also on the stone, was, as is
well known, retained for several centuries, irrespective of its meaning.
m. A Britanno-Roman sarcophagus, supposed to be Christian, found at
Sarmimg in Kent {Roach Smith, Collectanea AnH^ua, 1. 184). But see Mr.
Smith's remark, ib. p. 304.
iv. A3toneio\inAaxBaih(HorsUy,BriJ.Rom.,Somersel.no.iv.xaAp.3ij),
with some figures conjectured to represent Christian symbols {M^Caul,BrH.
Rom. Inscriptions, pp.181, 183, Lond. 1863), but combined with an inscrip-
tion beginning with the Pagan D. M.
3. UlSCEIXAIfEOlZB.
L Pieces of pottery stamped with parts of a cross and the monogram,
found at Padstow in Cornwall (/fiw/iiw,^rfA(Z(t/,_/(?«r«fl/, vol. iv. p. 307. 1847).
ii. A frs^^ent of Samian ware marked with Christian symbols, found at
Catterick in Yorkshire {Archaol. Journal, vo\.y\. p. 81. 1849)-
iii. A sAvct cup found on the right bank of the Tyne, near Corbridge in
Northamberhnd, in 1736, with six different compartments, in each of which
is the mom^ram (Hotfgson's Norlhumb. Ill, ii. 346).

(figured in Archctol. Association Journal for 1850, p. r26).

monogram, intermixed however with pagan figures and symbols (figured in
Lysotu' Reliq^ BrUanmco-Rom., No. III. Plate 5, Lond. 1801).
v{. A pavement in a Roman villa at Horkstow in Lincolnshire, with Greek
crosses at each angle, but similarlr intermixed with pagan symbols (figured
in Lyiom, ib. No. I, Plate 6).
vii. Two tiles with the monogram, found in 1864 in a Roman villa at
Chedworth in Gloucestershire {Rtv. S. Lysonsjun., Archaol.Joum./or 1864).
viii. A brass coin of Decentins, brother of Magnentius, A.D. 350-353, on
the reverse of which is the monogram between the letters a and •>" {Bucimaa
and Naomarch, lUustr. of Roman Art in Cirencester, 1850, p. 153). So also
some of Magnentius' own coins. See Banduri, II. 400, 41 1 ; and Eckhel,
VIII. lai.
ix. A stamped brick, supposed to represent Samson and the foxes, found
in Mark Lane, London, about A.D. 1675 (figured in Leland, CoOecL I. Pre/.
Ixxi.).
X. Pins in bronze used in fastening the dress, some of them with orna-
mented heads, two of which are cruciform ; and on a third is a medal with a
figure looking at a cross (Roack SmiA, Cata^^w of Mus. of London Anti-
quities, p. 63. 1854).
xi. At Ilkley in Yorkshire, a human figure with a glory round the head
(Rieharison, in Hearnis Leland's Itinerary, 1. 144).
xii. Two metal stamps with the monogram, ajid the name " Syagrius," and
on the one the word " Spes," on the other the a and w, found in the Thames
{Proceed. 0/ Aniiq. Soc., vol, ii. pp. 335, 236, and Series, March 26, 1863).
[An altar found at Rutchester on Hadrian's wall {Hodgson's Northumb., as
above, 178) has been alleged to bear Christian marks; but the supposed
moni^ram is merely an obliterated letter (Bruce, Roman Watt, p. 405, ed.
1858). There is no Christian monument among the hundreds of heathen
ones found along the wall (Bruee, ib. p. 404), Neither did Horsley at his
earlier date know of any in any part of England : see a striking passage
from a sermon of his, ap. Bruce, ib. There are, however, monuments along
the wall with no distinctive pagan symbols. On the other band, the cross,
and still less a garland, are not necessarily Christian symbols : see Roack
Smith, Aniiq. of Riehiorough, etc And such monuments, therefore, as e. g.
the two in Horsley, nos. xiv. xv. of Scotkmd, supposed by Whilaier {Anc.
Cat/ie^. of CorMoatt, I. Sj, 88) to be Christian, have no claim to be BucJi?.]

later form). — CXXV. Annus. Synodus Victorise apud Britones con-

(nth century, in Catniro-Brit. SS. 136, sq.), copied from him by
Gra/d. Cami. {K S. David., in Wharton, A. S. 11. 638, 639) ; but it is
purely "= fabulous, and is directed to the establi^ment of the apocry-
jrfial supremacy of S. David and his see over the entire British
Church. It also attributes to them' the crushing of Pelagianism in
Britain, whence the name of the second as given in ^nn. Cami. und
Rbyddmarch, viz. Victorise (without the "luci"). The following docu-

il. Maskell, *Mim. SHual. vol. III., mentions several rites peculiar at first
to the eariy Anglo-Saxon Church, and apparently to the Northumbrian branch
of it, and subsequently (for a time) borrowed thence by the Churches of
northern France ; of which one certainly, viz. the anointing of the hands at
ordination {see Gildas, Epist. I. as above, p. 102), and therefore possibly the
others, were borrowed from the British Church. The dose connection of

the Scottish and Northumbtmn Churches strongly increases the probabilities
of siKh an origin for them. They are —
I . Anointing of hands of deacons at ordination.
a. Anointing of hands as well as head of Priests, and of Bishops, at
ordination; and of the head twice, in the case of Bishops. So
MasktU; but see the passage quoted below on pp. 153, 154, from
the Vila S. KaUigemi. ,
3. Prayer at the giving of the stole to Deacons at ordination.
4. Rite or deliverii^ the Gospels to Deacons at ordination.
5. Rite of investing Priests with the stole at ordination.
m. A statement respecting British Liturgies, differing from S. Patrick's,
and introduced into Ireland in the latter half of the 6th century by S. David,
S. Cadoc, and Gildas, is made in the Calai. Santtorum attributed to Tire-
channs, c. A. D. 750, for which see the document itself in its place under the
Irish Chtff^eh. That the British Liturgy was one peculiar to Britain, is also
asserted by some one under the name of Gildas (above, p. in), but cer-
tainly Irish, and t»f later date than Gildas, probably of the 7th century. See
also below, p. 153.
IV, The Lessons of Scripture used at radination by the British Church
appear to be peculiar' to the British Ordinal, and to be taken from a Latin
version peculiar to the British Church. See Gildas, Episl. /., as above,
pp. 103-107, and notes; and in Appendix G. below. See also below,

THE BRITISH, AND [N PARTICULAR THE WELSH. EPISCOPATE.
jiamm The signatures to the Council of Aries (above, under A.D.
Bittoin. 214) are conclusive evidence to the existence of diocesan
Bishops in the British Church from the beginning. And the language of
Sulpicius Severus respecting the Council of Ariminum (above, under A.D.
359) shews that the number of sees was not limited to the three \t-hose
occupants were at Arlej : while that of S. Athanasius and S. Hilary tends in
the same direction {above, pp. 8, 9), The circumstances which led elsewhere
to the establishment of Archbishoprics, existed also in Roman Britain. Bnt
there is no reliable evidence * that Archbishoprics ever came into existence '
there prior to S. Augustin, however probable it may seem that the Bishops
of the Roman cities which were the capitals of the several Roman provinces
(whether the three, also — but simply as Bishops — at Aries, who presided at
. York, London, and conjecturally Caerleon, or the five, made up by the addi-
tion of fAlba, i. e. Candida Casa, for Valentia, and that [absolutely apocry-
phal] of Canterbury for Cantia or Britannia S^cimda), may possibly have
risen to some sort of Archiepiscopate over their brethren. The system
however of diocesan Episcopacy is conclusively proved to have existed.
LattrBriiiA The same system, without Archbishops, is found in the
C*«^«*- later British Church.
1. In Wales, Bishops not diocesan, but presiding over monastic or educa-
tional institutions, are perhaps faintly traceable about the 6th century. E. g.
Paulinus, who was simply Abbot of his own monastery at Ty-Gwyn, is called

a Bishop by Ricemarch ( V. S. David.), writing however in the i ith century :
while S. David, S. Teilo, S. Padarn, and S. Samson, although subsequently
Bishops (and the first three also founders) of definite sees, arc said in their
jcspective Lives (written in the nth or 12th centuries) to have been con-
secrated without reference to any sees at all (and the first three at Jerusalem)
as a kind of honorary dignity — a statement of course entirely legendary, but
proving the idea of an honorary lE^HSCopate not to have been unfamiliar to
Welshmen of even the nth century. On the other hind, as soon as ever
the history of Wales emerges from the darkness that conceals it for a century
ailer the departure of the Romans, a diocesan Episcopate is found established
there, with a monastic establishment indeed as tbe centre of each see, but
with the Bishop as such as- its head : apparently however newly multiplied
and arranged, so as to present a series of Bishoprics (in lieu perhaps of the
oneBishopofCaerleon*) tallying almost exactly with the principalities which
came into existence at the same period, and without any Archiepiscopate.
There is no trace at any time in that country of any system resembling the
Irish and Scotch (viz. of government by Abbots, with Bishops as subordi-
nate officers, discharging Episcopal functions, but without jurisdiction), (»-
indeed of any other system whatever than that of a diocesan Episcopate t.
And about A. D. 550, Gildas speaks familiarly of " parochiae" as the esta-
blished rule in Wales, and as endowed.
The several sees were as follows : —
i. Bakook, for the principality of Gmytudd (Venedotia); of which
Deiniol or Daniel is the first recorded Bishop and reputed founder
{Ricemarck, V.S.Daoid. \-},l,Lib.Laitd<ai. 5, 68), who died AD. ^84
(Ann. Camh., " CXL. Annus, Dispoulio Danielis Bancormn"). No
records of the see for Welsh times exist; but Welsh Bishops holding
it are mentioned A.D. 768-809 (Atm. Comb., a. 768, S09 — " Elbodg,

S. David's, who died A.D. 1064 (Aim. Cami.).

him to his disciple S. Asaph on his own return to Glasgow and
Strathclwyd. Kentigem died A.D. 6ia (Ann. Cami.— " CLXVUI.

man times exist, but a Bisbc^ of S. Asaph is mentioi>ed A.D. 92S
{Pref. to Hauiel Ddds Laws). " Renchidos Episcopus," mentioned
without a see, but in conjunction with Elbod of Bangor, by aae ^IS.
of Nennius, may have been Bishop of S. Asaph. And the Chapter
of S. David's, in the letter quoted above, claim for " Bedwd," appa-
rently, Bleiddud, Bishop of S. David's (who died A.D. 1071, Arm.
Canti.), the consecration of one " Melanus Lanelvensis." Henry of
Huntingdon (Hist, Angl. I. M.H.B. 693) omits the see of S. Asaph
in bis hst of Welsh Bishoprics c. A.D. 11.^5; but this must ha\-e
arisen either from inadvertency or from the * poverty of the see, or
possibly because it was not then confessedly subject to Canterbury,
being the last Welsh see to hold out.
iii. S. David's, for the principality of Dy/ed (Dimetia), inchiding how-
ever also from the beginning the southern half of Cardiganshire, and
subsequently the whole of it (apparently in accordance with the
varying extent of the principality itself), and parts also, at different
times (for a like reason), of Glamorgan, Brecknock, and Radnor:
referred to S. David as its founder by Bishop Rhyddmarch or Rice-
march (Bishop of S.David's, AD. 1090x1098, Vila S. David, in
Camir. Brit. SS., and partly in Whartm A. S. II.), althot^h with a
legendary hint of a Bishop in the same region before David. S. David
died A.D. 601 (Ami. Cami. — " CLVIl. Annus, David ^iscopus

V. LiiAKAFAirvADH, in Brecknock, appears by an inscription to S. Afan
(given below in Append. F.), and by dedications of churches, to
have been the centre of a see for a short period, either coincident
with Llanbadam (the seat of the Episcopate being transfen-ed for the
time from Llanbadam to Llanafanvaur), or taken out of it {Rets,
Welih SS. 308, 309). Nothing is known of the history of such a see ;
■ but S. Afan, being one of S. Fadam's companions, must have fol-
lowed him closely in date, and the see must have been speedily
merged again in that of Llanbadam, and then both in that of
S. David's,

ultimately also (besides other smaller principalities) of Mttrgameg

Ann. Camb., or 633, Ann. Tigernack. in (/Conor, II. 192), refer these

and with the object of snppoiting the claims of the see at that dme
to the district between the rivers Neath and Towy and to a part of
Brecknock from the see of S. David's, and to the district of Archen-
field in Herefordshiie from that of Hereford. These records how-
ever are nothing better or worse than an uncritical compilation by
interested and unhistorical compilers, who had no scruple, if a title-
deed was wanting, in composing one according to their own view of
the &Ct3; and they undoubtedly contain in their later period genuine
documents ; although, even down to the time shortly preceding their
ctMnpilation, they are proved inaccorate, wherever independent evi-
dence exists to test them. It is impossible to make out a consistent
list of successive Bishops from them ; and the attempt to do so, or
to escape difBculties by im^ining a whole band of suifragans to
Oudoceus who disappear altogether afterwards, falls to the ground
with the untenable assumption upon which it rests, of the historical
accuracy of the charters. But enough exists, when taken together
with other evidence, wliich will be found further on mider its respec-
tive years, to establish amply the continued existence of the Bishopric

vii. viii. A • traditional list of the British Bishops present at the con-
ferences with S. Augustin A.D. 601 (lolo AfSS, 143, 548), contains
a " Bishop of Morganwg" as distinct from Lkndaff; who is conjec-
tured to have been Bishop of Makoam in Glamorganshire, which is
said to have been a Bishop's see for a little while about the 6th cen-
tury (ib, 361): and a Bishop of "Wig," conjecturally identified with
Weeg in Archenfield on the Wye in Herefordshire, which is sup-
posed to be the same place as Henllan the place of Dubridus' col-
lege. There is no fairly historical evidence of the existence of either
see. But Bishoprics appear to have coincided with principalities in
* Wales, as in Saxon England; and Welsh principalities, like Saxon
ones, went through many changes before they settled down into their
ultimate form and extent ; and it is probable, therefore, that sees like
Margam or Weeg may have existed temporarily in different parts
of what afterwards became the one principality (for a while) of Mor-
ganwg and so the one Bishopric of Llandaff : just as Llanbadam and
Llanafan existed for a time apart from S. David's.
There is no real evidence of the existence of any Arcbiepiscopate at all in
Wales during the Welsh period, if the term is held to imply jurisdiction ad-
mitted or even claimed (until the lath century) by one see over another.
And the political condition of the country would have seriously hindered, if
it did not altc^ther preclude, the existence of such a real Archiepiscopate :
although no doubt the Bishops of the several sees, probably a single Bishop
in each case, consecrated to the other sees on a vacancy. The S. David's
monk Asser (AD. 884), and the Dimetian form of Howel Dda'a Laws
(A.D. 938), style the Bishop of S. David's "Archbishop." And the latter
claims for him a kind of Primacy {Anc. Loan of WaUt, II. 790, 791, 869, 879),
And Rhyddtnaich, in his Life of S. David (A.D. 1090 k 1098), claims for
David and his successors jurisdiction over the whole, not of Wales only, hot
of Britain. But the Ami. Comb., and the Brvly Tywyiogion, and Nemiiiu,
bestow the same title upon the Bishop of Bangor, A.D. 76S-809; and the
change to the Roman Easter, the one really important revolution in the
Wel^ Church from the 5th century to the lath, was introduced into Wales,
and ultimately established there, through this "Archbishop" of Bangor. And

the Bishops of LlandaiT, in the Lii. Landau., vaguely claim Archiepiscopal
juiisdiction for Dubridus and his successors, i. e. LJandaff, and know nothing
of S. David, except as one of the equal trio — Teilo, David, and Padam.
The legends also of S. Teilo and S. Padam place these Bishops, the fonner
above, the latter upon a level with, S. David. And Llunwerth, Bishop of
S.David's about AXt. 87a, is mentioned incidentally in the Zi6. Landav.
(138), as simply a brother Bishop to the Bishop of Llandaff. The vety
arguments of Giraldus and of the Chapter of S. David's on behalf c^
the metropolitica] power of that see, raked tt^ether with difficulty in the
end of the lath century, shew that no such power had existed within the
memory of men at that time, and that no real evidence was to be found
to indicate its having ever existed at all; the "fiction about S.Samson, the
assextioD (probable but irrelevant) that some Bishops of Llandaff, Bangor,
and S.Asaph had been consecrated during the nth century by the contempo-
rary Bishops of S. David's, and the exaggerated language of Bishop Rhydd-
march, constituting t the sole producible support for the cl^ms fii^t formally
advanced by Bernard, Bishop of S.David's in A.D. 1115-1148. And the
claim of Bishop Bernard, and in sequence to him of Giraldus, was ad-

Canterbury, and (in the latter case) from English nominees to Welsh
Bishoprics.
II. In D)/naini, or Dammmta, there is sufficient presumptive evidence of
the existence of Bishops apparently from the 6th century*. And two " British
Bishops," probably Cornish or from Devon, are mentioned by Bede (see
above, p. 134) in A.D. 664. But the first distinct proof of a Cornish see is
the episcopate of Kenslec, in tbe time of Archbishop Ceobtoth, AD. 833-B70
(for which see below under the Church t£ Conaoall).
The see of Congresbury rests upon exceedingly questionable evidence.
The Chron. Glas/on. (written A.D. 1 359), t after asserting the foundation of
the see A.D. 167, asserts that in the time of king Ina, " DC. annos vel
amplius" from its foundation, L e. A.D. 767 or later, Daniel, " in eodem
Episcopatu ultimus Episcopus Britonum," transferred it to Wells. Ussher
rectifies this (kte to AJ>. 731. See also the Hisl. de Epise. BtUk. et Well.
, ap. Wharion, A. S. I. 553, and the legend of S. Cungar in Capgrave. The
first known Saxcm Bishop of Wells was consecrated probably A.D. 909,
The see of Silchester in Hants is still more questionable, having no better
authority than Geoffrey of Monmouth (IX. 14.) giving us Bishops of that
see and of Winchester in the time of king Arthur and of Dubricins, whom
he makes to be contemporaries.
III. Slrathekoyd and Cumbria present a Uttle more definite and historical
testimony to the origination of their Episcopate, but are involved in absolute
darkness respecting its continuance thenceforward.
i. The Bishopric of Candida Casa or Whitherne indisputably was founded
by S. Ninian, and within a few years subsequent to A.D. 400 (see
above, p. 14). But nothing is known of its history or of S. Ntnian's
successors X nntil Saxon coriquest broi^ht thither a Sazon Bishop,
A.D. 68r, whose successors held it as a Saxon see until at least
A.D, 796 {Fhr. Wig^. Its subsequent history will be foond, so far
as it is known, in its proper place and date further on.
ii. The Bishopric of Glasgow was also indisputably founded at the later
dale of the middle or end of the 6th century, by Kentigem or Cyn-

John, who was appointed to it by David of Scotland, probably A.D.
1115 {Tvquisiiio, etc. in Heg. EpUc. Glasg. p. 4, and Wilk. I. 391).
But the Inquisitio just quoted, and which is dated about A.D. 1116,
establishes two facts, — (i)that Kentigem was then known to have
had " plures successores," although the see had been recently and
for some time vacant and plundered ; and (3) that certain consider-
able estates, then searched out and restored to it, were known to
have been " anciendy possessed" by that see.

APPENDIX D.
SCHISM BETWEEN BRITBH AND ROMAN CHURCHES.
THE fonnal schism between tbe British and the Saxon (and Roman)
Churches was rested by Augustin upon two points * {Sted. H. E. II. i).
1 . Eabtbs — Up to the Council of Nice the practice of the British har-
monized with that of the entire Western Church, i. e. with the Roman
(Coonc. of Aries, A.D. 31 4). The most ancient Roman table for
Easter (in Bucheiius, Comment, in Victor. Can.Pasch. 352 sq.) tallies
precisely with the British Easter (Van der Hagen, O&serov. in Prosper.
Chron. 336-354; De Rossi, Inscriptt. Christian. Proleg. btxxvi.).
From Ihe Council of Nice, to which they gave express assent, up to the
middle of the 5 th century, the Britons followed the Western Chorcb
in its gradual practical divergence from that of Alexandria and
the East, arising mainly from the use of dlffer^it lunar cycles : i. c.
they agreed with Rome in the practical difference but professed
^reement of that Church with the Eastemf.
But when S. Augustin and the Saxon Church came in contact with
them in the 6th century, it appeared (besides other minor points)
that the Britons still acted upon tbe cycle which the Church of Rome
had used with some changes up to 45S, but had then changed, and
still retained what had (it should seem) been the original Roman
nile, of keeping the 14th day of the moon (so detennined), if a
Simday. (i) They determined the moon by the 84 years' cyde,
attributed to, but really far earlier than, Sulpicius Severns, A J). 41 o,
which had been supplanted successively at Rome itself by the 533
years' cycle of Victor. Aquitan., A.D. 457, and by that of 19 years
of Konyaius Exiguus, A.D. 535, these changes being designed

to bring the Roman reckoning into harmony with the Alexan-
drian. (3) They counted as Easter Day the Sunday which feH,
next after the equinox, between the 14th and the aoth (not, as it
had come to be at Rome, the igth and the aist) days inclusive of
the mora. — " Non, ut quidam falso opinantur, quarta decima lona
in qiuHbet feria cum Judxis sed die Dominica semper (pascham)
agebat (Aidanns) ;" only, " a feria quarta decima usque ad vice-
simam" {Bad. H. E. III. 17). And, "Non pasclue Dominlctmi
diem suo tempore sed a quarta decima usque ad vicesimam
hmam observabant (Brittones), quae computatio octc^inta qua-
tuor annonim drculo continetur" (Id. A //. a). — And, " Pono isti

dedma quaita luna cum Judxis paschale sacramentum celebrant;

wema^ { Aldhelm, Epist. ad GenttU., whose unfair insinuation, that
they were Quartodedmans, must be corrected by Bede). See also

Van der Hagen and De Rossi as above quoted. The facts of the
case prove the Western, not the Eastern, origin of the Briti^ Church.
And the difference arose in that Church, as Bede testifies of the Scots
at Hii, — " utpote quibus longe ultra orbem positis nemo gynodalia

renascimur, juxta morem sanctse Romans et Apostolics Ecdesis

Single immersion seems most probable {Kunslmatm, Pbniiml. Bikher
dtr Angelsaefu., p. 3). It was the custom " in tota diocesi Maclo-
viensi," in Brittany, up to A.D. i6ao {Marlau, De Bapt. 1. 8). It pre-
vailed in the 6th century m Spain {Coac. Tolel. IV. A.D. 633, can. vi,
Caial. III. 367 : S. Grig. Epist. ad Ltandr. Hispal. 0pp. II. 333),
where there was probably a British Bishopric at that date (see below).
Of the three ancient Gallican Ordines Baptismi in Marlene, it is left

them which came from Bobbio. One of the eariiest Anglo-Saxon
decrees (see below under Augustin) provides for the invocation erf"
each Person of the Holy Trimy in Baptism : and the PBendo-Theo-
dore {afi. 7%orpe, xlviiL ao), which is however a Prankish doctiment,
not a Saxon one, repeats and enforces the Apostolic canon com-
manding trine immersion. Lastly, Gregory I. left the question an
open one {£pit/. adLtandr. Si'spai.); and except en this one occa-
sion, by S. Angostin, no stress is laid upon any question respectiiig
baptism in the British controversy. That it was the omission of
chrism (true of the later Irish, Lanfrtmc, Episl. ad Terdelvat., A,D.
1074, Of^. p. 330, ed. Ben.) or of confirmation, is negatived by the
mention of both in S. Patrick's Epist. ad Coroticum. And the strange
customs about Baptism mentioned by Brompton in relation to the
Council of C^hel in rija belong also to the later Irish*.
The schism subsequent to AugustJD, and the parallel controversy in
France, turned wholly upon two points— the one, Easter, the other, —
3. The ToNauRE : — the Scottish, with which the British was no doabt
identical, differing both from the Roman and the Greek (Bada, H. £.
IV. I, y.2i; Aldhdm,AdGertatt.; (riVc)^, as above, pp. 113,113: and
9XXiSmfkadBad.App.IX.\>\ Hussey, ad Bted. IV. i ; M<UnU.,Amt.
StHed. I. ^iS, and Act. SS.Ord. Ben. Sae.II.pp.it^ito). A ton-
sure like the British is condemned by Cone. Tolet IV. AD. 633,
can. xlL {Kuiulmann, p. 5, as above). The <x>lony of Saxons them-
selves, at Bayeux, had, before A.D. 590, copied the British tonsure
from the Bretons (Greg. Dtr., Hist. Franc. X. 9 : and see also Sidm.
ApoU., Epist. VIII. 9).
To these may be added other points of difference, all, however, both
natural results of the isolated condition of the Celtic Churches, and non-
essential, viz. —

the Western Chnrcfa, until S. David's canonization in A,D. iiao; who is still
the one Welsh saint formally enrolled in the Western Calendars. But
S. Samson, and the Cotnish saints who (like S. Samson) were connected
with Brittany (S. Winwaloc, S. Machutus, S. Maclovius, etc.), were recognized
in them, no doubt on this account (see above, p. 34). And Gildas and Petroc
occur in Saxon Calendars (above, p. 35). Except S. Cybi and S. Beuno, all

There have been found in south-west Devonshire, ronnd the sonth and
west of Dartmoor, at least six inscribed tombstones of this period, — viz. at
Tavistock, Buckland Monachorum, Yealmpton, Ivybridge (the Fardel-stone),
Stowford, and Lusdeigh {Lyioru, Deootuk. Inirod. cccix.; Arc/usol. Journ.
VIII. 434; Areh. Cami., yd Seriei;, VIII. 134/ Smirkt in Proc. ef Royal

poraiy inscriptions in the character of the letters, the contents and fonn of
die inscriptions, in their grammar, and in one instance (Ivybridge) in the
accompanying of the Latin words by an (apparent) equivalent in Ogham
characters, and probably Christian because the Welsh and Comish parallel
class are in many cases demonstrably so. There are however no decisive
Christian marks on any of those in Devonshire. There are however crosses,
not inscribed, at Coplestone in the pariah of Colebrooke near Crediton, at
Lusdei^, and at East Worlington (Zyntw, as above, cccix. cccx,).

The interpretation given of the first and third divisions of
this inscription is exceedingly questionable, but it is apparently
Christian, and of a time when Roman influence still operated.

There are also inscribed tombstones of the character and form of these
inscriptions, and of like date, but without decisive Christian marks, at
Znnfvff in Madron parish (the MIn Scryfien or Scryfa), between Gtdlwal and
Madron, at Maaiga», at S. Cuberfs, at Tffgoney, at 'S'. Columb Minor, at

connects it with Pascent or Fasgen, who occurs as a saint among the

elsewhere in S.David's diocese {Rtes, Welsh SS. 189). See also below,

This is the only remaning inscription of the kind in the Welsh language
(except a few words in that of Eliseg). It is probably in honour of Cadfan
the saint (for the king of that name, see below), — who came from Armorica
with S. Padani, and therefore about the middle of the 6th century, and
founded Tywyn church among others (Sea, Welsh SS. 313-315), — and of
Cyngen king of Powys, — t^bout the end of the same century. The reading
and interpretation given above are those of Messrs. Westwood and Williams ;
snbsequently, however, slightly altered by them. See Arch. Comb., Old

of the 5th or beginning of the 6th century. " Dunauut filius Pabo c&iit,"
A.D. 595 {Am. Comb., MS. B. in M.H.B.). His name occurs in the
Myoyr. Arch., II. 49, in the Botuddy Saint {Ras, Wtlsk SS. 167). But the
stone is of the 1 3th or 1 4th century ; see Camdm, Briiatm. II. 571. ed 1 789,
and Arch. Comb., ^rd Series, VII. 300. See also Rowlands, Motia Aati^ia,

in the V. S. Cadoci {Cambro-Bril. SS. 91). ■ And Maccus, " plurimanim Rex

name may be " Macutus." Several other stones in different parts of Wales,

■ B, The usi^e of the writers above quoted with respect to (Latin) v
of Scripture is as follows : —
I. Fabtidics uses the Vulgate (omitting Apocrypha and Psalms, and
passages common to both Vulgate and Old Latin) in four places,
all in the N. T. (1 Tun. v. 9, 10, Heb. vL 4-ti, Jas. iv. 4, 2 Pet iL
ao-93). Elsewhere, throughout the Bible, he uses a version of the
Old Latin, in seventeen places (as above quoted) peculiar to himself
(except that in Elzek. xviii. 31-23 ^^ xxxiii. 11 he agrees with G.,
while in Matth. vii. 23 and i Cor. v. 11 he differs from him, and in
Matth. XXV. 41 he agrees (once) with the Ami. de Mirah. SS.), and
in sixteen found elsewhere : viz.
Gen. xiiL 13 = {/ire) Ambr. i Tim. ii. 8 = Ambr.
Lev. xix. a = Ambr. 1 Tim. v. fi = {/ere) Ambrosiast.
Ps. xxxiii. 13-15 = MS. S.Germ. Tit. l 16 = MSS. S. Germ, et Cla-
Frov. iii. 9 = LXX., Cassian. rom.
Cantic. V, 16 = Ambr. Jas. iv. 4 " Aug.

Jerem. iii. 22 = (Jere) Hieron. a Pet iii 9 = MS. Corb.
Matt viL 21 ° (phirals) Ambr. i Joh. U. 6 = Aug.
Joh. xiv. 2 1 = Cassiod.
3. S. Patrick, about half a centuiy later, apparently uses the Vu^ate (in
his present text) three times, all in the N. T. (Matth. xii. 30, Coh-
gregal [but also in MS. S.Germ. 2, &c], Mark xvi. 15, 16, Rora.
a. 25, 36 from Hosea i. 10, il. 24), possibly also in five other
places, also in the N. T, (Matth. x. 20, a transposition of two
words ; Mark viii. 36, but mixed up with Matth. xvi. 26, where V.
= L; Acts ii. i^, 18 from Joel ii. 28, ag, but merely fomfuii^ff/ for

Zech. ii. 8 Mei (also in TertuIL), aie also found in V. Omitting^
twenty-three quotations wheie V. = I., he uses commonly a foiin of
the Oid Latin, in fourteen places (as above) peculiar to himself, in
nine traceable elsewhere : viz. —

Isaiak (loa verses from ai different chapters).
Jeremiah, including Lamentations (11 1 verses from ao different
chapters).
Malacitt (18 verses from all the 4 chapters).
But quotes also (in Hist^ Isai. i. 4, 5 (consecutively with 5, 6 from

(var^ng also fibm V. in xxii. 13, 13), and xlviii 33, IviL 31 (p. 59,

with i. 13, 14 from V.) from aversion peculiar to himself, and ilL 1

trace, not only of the Old Za/in (Matth. xxvi. 53 > MS.
S. Germ.), but of possibly & British variety of it (Amos viii
10, nearly agreemg with Gildas, see above). MSS. 1. and m^
however, of nth century (the former A.D. 1138 — see Sari.
Caial.), also contain a few Old Latin readings.
From the above statement it appears to follow —
r. That while the Vtdgale was plainly known to (thoi^h barely used
by) Fastidius, writing at a time when Britain and South Europe were
in full intercourse, but so early as about A.D. 490, it may possibly be
questionable whether it was known to S. Patrick, writing in Ireland
some half century later, and when such intercourse was gready im-
peded. The few traces of that version to be found in his present
text are far more slight than those in Fastidius, and not mcve
than may be due to copyists. The question is of some impoTtance
as bearing upon the intercourse of S. Patrick, and of the whole North
Western Church of that time, with Rome. Further, that by about a
century later (c 560) the Kv^n/e had so far penetrated into Britain as
to supersede with Gildas the Old Lalih altogether in some, and ^to
leaven it with abundant alterations in more, of the most used books
of both O. and N. T., while in such books as 3 Chron., Job, Pro-
verbs, Ezekiel, and the Minor Prophets, the Old Latin previously
in use still held its ground ; the form of the Vulgait so introduced
resembling but not being throughout identical with the Cod. Amia-
tinuse. Lastly, that a gradually increasing use of the Vulgatt may
be traced at the successive dates of 634 (Irelsmd), 700 (Scotland),
end of Jth and beginning of 8th centuries (Ireland), down to the
period when a few lingering traces and no more of the Old Latin
were still left, as in Nennins and Asser (c. 900), and even so late as
A.D; 1135 and irsSl
3. A presumption arises in favour of the existence of a special British
(and Irish) revision of the Old Latin, as the version thus gntdoally
superseded : a presumption based upon the number, and the singu-
larity, of the readings above collected. This would have been more
vi^Ue to the eye, had space allowed the printing of the other forms of
the Old Latin, and of the Vulgate, side by side with the British (and
Irish) quotations of the former. It must suffice to say here, that the
positive evidence of such singularity, and of its amount, will be found
by any one who compares the versions, to be exceedingly strong as

regards the books of Chronicles, Job, Proverbs, Ezekiel, and the
Minor Prophets, as above mentioned; and that, once granted in
these cases, there are sufficient peculiarities still traceable in the other
books of Scripture, to establish what would then be of itself more
than probable, viz. the existence of such a revision extending through
the whole Bible. This is to some extent confinned, so far 2s the
very scanty evidence to the point reaches, by the agreement of Fasti-
dios, Gildas, and in one of the two places the Cod. Can. Hibern. also,
in the peculiar rendering of the two passages of Ezekiel quoted by
both, and by the like agreement of Cummian and the Cod. Can.
Hibern. in a third peculiar reading in Ezekiel and in another passage
in the Psalms (although in the N. T., Matth. vii. 31, r Cor. v. 11,
I Pet. iv. 18, F. and G. do ml agree), and further by a like agreement
between Colvirobanas and Gildas in three places out of the four
in the N. T. quoted by both in a peculiar rendering, viz. Matth.
vii. 23 (in part), Phil. ii. 3, 1 Pet. i. 16 (in 1 Pet. iv. 18 they do not
agree, nor yet in Mai. iii. a from O. T., although there is some
resemblance between them in the latter passage) ; while on the
other hand, in the one passage quoted by S. Patrick from the
Old Latin (i Pet. iv. 18) in common with Gildas, Fastidiua, and
Columbanus, they are all different, and S. Patrick singularly so.
Unfortunately these are the only passages quoted by more than one
of the list, except the four mentioned below", which are irrelevant to
the present purpose. Further, however, the same inference is slighdy
confirmed by the evidence (unfortunately very scanty in its range) of
the few and limited existing Latin MSS., connected with the British
and Irish Churches, whether Old Latin, or {as is the case with most
of them} Vulgate but retaining a large leaven of the Old Latin, We
have here, first, special and characteristic readings, of which a list
of a few may be found in Mr. Westcott's note to his article on the
Vulgate (in Smith's Diet, of Bill., HI. 1694) : and secondly, read-
ings common to one or more of such MSS. with one or other
of the writers above cited. Unfortunately the range of the former
is confined to the four Gospels (with the exception of the Book of
Armagh, which contains the whole N. T., and the Codd. Aug. and
Boemerianus, and that of Wurzburg, containing the Pauline Episdes),
no MSS.b of the kind existing for the 0. T. (except the remarkable

which is also ta the Cod. Can. Hibtrn. Twenty-five sncb readings
are also common to Gildas with the Book of Aimagfa in the E[»3t]es
(although in the Gospel of S. Matthew the two do not tally), about
ten of which belong to British or Scotch sources, several of them
being also in the Cod. Boemerianus. And the specially ancient MS.
- a. presents the peculiar re^ngs of Gildas in S. Matthew in three or
four places, and of Fastidins in as many more. There are also,
taken together, a noticeable ntn&ber of coincidences between such
readings and those of the other Irish MSS., and between the peculiar
readings of the several MSS. themselves. Lasdy, there is the (cer-
tainly) strong evidence derivable from the texts printed at the end of
this Appendix. The above totals would be increased by one (or, in
the case of the Book of Armagh, two) if the readings of MS. B. of
Gildas were adopted.
Where the text of Gildas agrees with forms of the Old Latin elsewhere
nsed, it is more commonly wiUi those of the African type (MSS. Vercell.,
Veron., Cotb,, Clarom., Corb.), than with those of the Italic (MS. Brix,);
and again with S. Cyprian, S. Augustin, and (curiously often) with the text
employed by Lucifer of Cagliaii. And his special renderings are commonly
(OTFectioQS made frtun the LXX. (once or twice apparently from the Hebrew),
and from a text of the LXX. agreeing partly with the MS. Vatic, partly with
tbe HS. Alez.k
3, The order of the books, espedally of the O. T., in Gildas' copy' is
observable. Putting the Pentateudi and Historical Books to th^ end
of Chronicles in the usual order, he proceeds next (Ezra, Nehemiah,
and Esther not being quoted by him) to —
Isaiah.
Jeremiah (Daniel is not quoted by him).
Mmor Prophets (Habakkuk and Joel being placed first, before
Hosea).
Job (Canticles are not qnoted, and Eccles. only once, and so as
not to indicate its place).
2 Esdras (4 Esdras in V.).
Ezduel.
Wisdom "I which are the only books quoted by him from our
Ecclesiasticus J Apocrypha.
All these books, even the 4th Esdras, are quoted without distinction, as
alike Scripture.

Further, mth SeduL Scot., and " with many early English MSS., and with

Colossians after Thessalonians.
4. It may be added that there is no trace anywhere of any Celtic ver-
sion of the Bible or of any part of it. S. Chrysostom's words, quoted
above on p. 10 (the second quotation), have been misunderstood to

3. The few qvotations from the Gospds, which are written on the margins of
the MS, Juvencus in Cambridge University Library (Ff. 4. ja), are from the OU
Latin, but contain nothing specially British or Irish, They agree occasionally
with the Old Lat'm used by Giidas (as e, g. S.Matth. ¥. \i projettattir, vii. a judica-
bitur de ifoiii), and present a few remarkable readings not traceable elsewhere (as
S.Jobn i, 51, jImaJe [from the Greek] videbitis ctclei apertor). The MS. is
Welsh, of the gtb century, but contains entries relating to Nuadu and Fetbgna
Bishops of Armagh, who died respectively A.D. 811 and S74(5ee Skene and Brad-
shaw, in Arch, Camb^ ^rd Seria, X. 1SI-15G), which shew it to have been carried
to Ireland before the last-named year. That the Irish and Welsh Chord)
were at this time In close btercoime with each other, see below under A.D.

counsel of the wise, they returned
to Britain, where Howel convoked
all the heads of tribes pf the coun-
try and their assistants, and all the
wise and learned, ecclesiastical and
lay, in a combined session at the
White House upon Tav in Dyved.
And after scarchii^ what was
procured from every country, the
laws of Dyvnwal Moelmud were
found to be the best ; and by the
learning and doctrinal skill of the
Doctor Bl^wryd they were ar-
ranged j and by the judgment of
the assembly they were expound-
ed, improved, and augmented;
and after the laws had passed
the judgment and verdict of the
country in the assembly, they
were authorized and made legal
in all the country of Wales, Ajid
after that Howel went a second
time to Rome, and obtained the
judgment of the wise there, and
ascertained those laws to be in
accordance with the law of God
and the laws of countries and
cities in the receipt of feith and
baptism. He then returned to
Wales, and submitted his laws
to the judgnjient of the cantrevs,
comots, and verdict of the coun-
try; and thence they became au-
thorized in all the lordships of
Wales, and in every court of
lord and tribe, until they became
paramoimt; and no others were
used in any court of country and
lord in Wales ; and from the
goodness of his laws he was
called Howel the Good {H. pp.

the wisest in hisdominion,

derfcs were summoned lest
the laks should ordaui any
thing contrarf to the holy
scripture. The time when
they assembled together
was Lent, and the reason
they assembled in Lent
was, because every one
shook! be pure at that
holy time, and should do
□0 wrong at a time of
purity. And with mutual
counsel and deliberation
the wise men there assem-
bled examined the ancient
laws; soRte of which they
suffered to continue unal-
tered, some they amend-
ed, others they entirely
abrogated ; and some new
laws they enacted.
And after promulgating

decided to establish,HoweI

HOWEL the good,
son of Cadell, by the
grace of God, king of all
Cymru, observed the Cym-
ry perverting the laws and
customs ; and therefore he
summoned to him, from
every cymwd 'of his king-
dom,' six men, vAo were
practised in authority and
jurispnidence; and all the
clergy of the kingdom pos-
sessed of the dignity of the
crosier, as the Archbishop
of Menevia, and Bishops,
and abbats, and priors, to
the {dace called the White
House upon the Tav, in
Dyved. That house he
ordered to be constmcted
of white rods, as a lodge
for him in hunting, when
he came to Dyved; and
on that account it was
called the White House.
And the King, with that
assemUy, remained there
during the whole of Lent,
to pray to God, through
perfect abstinence, and to
implore grace and dis-
cernment for the King to
amend the laws and "cus-
toms of Cymru,' And, at
the termination of Lent,

HOWEL the good,
son of Cadell, king of

grace of God and fasting
and prayer, when Cymru
was in his possession in its
bounds; to wit, ^ three
score and four •'cantrevs
in South Wales, eighteen
cantrevs of Gwynedd,three
score trevs beyond the
•Cyrchell, and three score
trevs of 'Buailt. And
within that limit the word
of no one went before
'their woixl, and 'their
word was binding upon
all.
As bad customs and bad
laws existed before his
time, he summoned six
men from every cfipwd
in Cymru, and assembled
them at the White House
upon the Tar, together
with seven score crosiers,
between Bishops, and
Archbishops, and abbats,
and good teachers, to form
wholesome laws, and to
abrogate the bad ones be-
fore his time, and to give

the Kbg selected, out of

the wisest laics, and the
most learned scholar, who
was called the master Ble-
gywryd, to form and sys-
temize the la<i^ >and

the nearest possible to
truth and to justice.
And he began to write
Ihem in three ports: the
fiist, the daily law of the
palace; the second, the
law of the country; the
third, the perfect admi-
nistration of each of them.
Id the next place, the
King ordered three law
books to be prepared :
one for the use of the
daily court, to remain con-
tinually with himself; an-
other for the court <^

the court of Aberfraw : so
that the three divisions of
Cymru, namely, Gwynedd,
Powys, and South Wales,
might have contmually a-
mongst them the autho*

for their reference at all
times.

those wise men, the King

finished those laws, they
imprecated the maledic-

ever should break those
laws.
And this book was *com-

the cause for their coming laws in their place. And
thse in Lent was, that no then he fully promulgated
e oagfat to speak or to the law among the people ;

And then they ■ exa-
mined the laws : soch of
them as might be too se-

tigate ; and such as might
be too lenient, to render
the laws tbej suffered to
remain mattered; others
tber willed to amend;
others they abrogated en-
tirely; and they enacted
some new laws.
And then Howel the
good and those wise men
denounced their maledic-
tion upon such as should
perrert thoee laws; and
upon the lord who should
change any one of them,
except wHh the consent
of an asembly as large
as that which met there.
Another malediction they
denounced upon the lord

upon the peison who
should tmdertake, judicial

his authority ; and the
malediction of God, as

then set forth ; unless al-

of the country and the
lord.
Here is the book of the

the wisest laics from every

ven score craziers. Arch-
bishops, and Bishops, and
good teachers, and abbats,
and priors, being the wise

of the wisest of that num-

the law, with one clerk,
the roost learned in all
Cymru, to write the law,
and to guard against doing

the law of the Church, or

XXIII. No one is to

since no one, by law, can
give a pledge against a
judgment, but under the
penalty of the worth of
his tongue; and there is
no established worth, in
the law of Hywel, for a
limb, the blood, or the
saraad of a clerical per-
son; and therefore not
one of them is able to
give a pledge in op po sHk m

unworthy injury done to
the clergy is to be re-
paired to them m the

siastical law.
CXXVIII. There are
three persons, no one of
whom, by law, can be a
qualified judge : one of
them is, a person having
a defect; as one who is
deaf, or blind, or leprous,
or an insane person, such
is a person whom it has
been necessary once to
bind on account of his
madness, or a person who
is unable to speak perfect-
ly, as one having a natural
impediment; the second
is, an ecclesiastical person,
connected with holy or-
ders, or with religion ; the
third is, a laic, without the
qualification for judging,
by law, from privilege of
land, or privilege of offiu.
